This page includes rarities from the Sony Custom Mix CD site . This facility lasted
from Feb to Dec 2003 and featured several rarities including a couple that were exclusive to the site. They are all therefore
listed below. Also included are exclusive rarities from the Apple iTunes
Online Music Store , which started in May 2003,
and still continues.

Titles in red are not available

rather than as rarities)

R-0273 Dignity - original Oh Mercy
out-take from the Touched By An Angel soundtrack album, also see 1998Now no longer a rarity since it is included in The Essential Bob Dylan
(2000) on the bobdylan.com albums page.

R-0552Waitin' For You - from the Divine
Secrets Of The Ya-Ya Sisterhood soundtrack album, see 2002

Jean-Pol Hiernaux has what must be a test pressing dated
"10/18/02" (18 Oct 2002). This was from before the site was open to the
public. It has only a card containing information about the Custom Mix CD
facility, no jewel case inserts. The CD contains R-0271, R-0273 and
R-0552 as above.

Apr 2003: (Custom Mix CD site )

Custom Mix CD - front scan by Jean-Pol Hiernaux (design 1)

More rarities appeared, including two exclusive tracks! With God On Our Side (live)
was confirmed to be the MTV Unplugged version.

R-0268 Cocaine Blues (Traditional) - live, El Rey Theater, Los Angeles, 16 Dec 1997
(A), from the
European Columbia Love Sick singles, also on a bonus disc included
with the Australian tour limited edition of Time Out Of Mind, for
both see 1998.

The Sony Custom Mix web-site misdated this performance as
from 20 Dec 1997, the 1998 releases date it correctly - see Cold Irons Bound
below for a second misdating. Bob did indeed perform Cocaine Blues
on 20 Dec
1997 but that performance has never been officially released.

R-0267 Cold Irons Bound - live, El Rey Theater, Los Angeles, 16 Dec 1997
(A) - same as BDC7 (see
above), from the European Columbia Love
Sick singles, also on a bonus disc included with the 1998 Australian tour
limited edition of Time Out Of Mind (see 1998), and several 1999 promo
releases, see 1999. Now also available on the 2001 Japanese live compilation Bob
Dylan Live 1961-2000: Thirty Nine Years Of Great Concert Performances,
see 2001.

The Sony Custom Mix web-site repeated the mistake on several of the releases that the
performance is from 20 Dec 1997. Bob did indeed perform Cold Irons Bound on 20 Dec
1997 but that performance has never been officially released. The Sony Custom
Mix web-site also
introduced a new mistake by misdating Cocaine Blues,
see above.

R-0205 Dead Man, Dead Man - live, Saenger Theater, New
Orleans, LA, 10 Nov 1981, B-side of Everything Is Broken Columbia single (see 1989). Later
released on the 1993 Japanese promo CD Mr.
D's Collection # 3 (see 1993),
and now also available on the 2001 Japanese live compilation Bob
Dylan Live 1961-2000: Thirty Nine Years Of Great Concert Performances
(see 2001).

R-0084 George Jackson - "Big Band" version, A-side of 1971 Columbia single (see 1971),
lyrics on bobdylan.comhere
Also available on the Nov 1972 Japanese boxed set Bob Dylan: Gift Pack '73
(see 1972), the 1974 Japanese limited release LP Mr D's Collection #1
(see 1974)and subsequent EP Mr D's Collection
#2 (see
1976), the 1978 Columbia Australia compilation Masterpieces
(see 1978), and the 1993 Japanese limited release
CD Mr D's Collection #3 (see 1993). This version
was released on commercial CD in 1987 (the CD release of Masterpieces),
although that track is distorted. The performance here is in good quality, as on Mr D's Collection #3.

R-0085 George Jackson - Acoustic version, B-side of 1971
Columbia single (see 1971),
also available on the 1974 Japanese limited release LP Mr D's Collection #1
(see 1974), and the 1993 Japanese limited release
CD Mr D's Collection #3
(see 1993). This version
was not released on commercial CD until it was included on a bonus disc
with the Dutch release of The Essential Bob Dylan, 2003.

The Sony Custom Mix web-site said George Jackson was the solo acoustic version (R-0085,
as confirmed by the online excerpt), but it was actually the "big band" version
(R-0084) until the end of April 2003, when it was replaced by the correct track.
However, I heard at the end of May 2003 that the latest Custom CDs were again
including R-0084. This was very confusing for customers! Amy Dickerson tells me
she ordered a CD containing the acoustic version but received the "big band"
version - she complained and was sent a replacement with the acoustic version.

R-0606 I Threw It All Away - this is a new out-take, previously
officially unreleased, although not new to collectors. Wrongly described as a 1969 studio outtake from the Nashville
Skyline
sessions, it was recorded with
George Harrison during the New Morning sessions at Columbia Studios, New
York, 1 May 1970. Seven other tracks from this session (R-0419 - R-0425) turned
up on the market in 1986 on Columbia acetates, now known as The Gelston Acetates
(see 1986), and If Not For You released on The Bootleg Series Vols. 1-3
in 1991 is also from this session. An alternate take of the song also
appears on The Bootleg Series, Vol. 10 - Another Self Portrait 1969-1971,
Aug 2013, but not the same one as it does this time come from the 1969
Nashville Skyline sessions!

R-0279 Million Miles - live, Broome County
Arena, Binghamton, NY, 19 Feb 1999 (A), from the Columbia promo CD Million Miles: Live Recordings
1997-1999, see 1999.

R-0130 Rita May - Desire out-take, recorded Jul 1975,
B-side of 1976 single Stuck Inside Of Mobile With The Memphis Blues Again from the Hard
Rain album (also released in France as the A-side), see 1976,
lyrics on bobdylan.comhere.
Some say this sounds like an alternate version, but it's possible it's been
remastered.

These tracks were available as an "Exclusive" 4-track download single from
the US iTunes store only from 24 Apr 2003.

R-0655Diamond Joe (Traditional) -
edited version of the performance from
the then unreleased soundtrack of the movie Masked And Anonymous (R-0612, see
2003, VHS & DVD 2000s Part 2
and above)
Although it's the same take and mix, this version is 10 seconds shorter than the Masked
And Anonymous version (2:22 instead of 2:32) because the start of the
intro is missing. Thanks to
Paul S. Levine and Jean-Pol Hiernaux for information.Note this
is a
different song from the one on Good As I Been To You, see International Albums (Regular),
thanks to Gil Walker for pointing this out. Thanks to Derek Barker for
information in "Isis 180" that although the song is associated with fiddler
Benjamin F. "Tex" Logan and has been copyrighted by him, it is in fact
traditional.

R-0613 Everything Is Broken - alternate take with different lyrics
from the version on Oh Mercy (not an alternate mix as described)
Now officially released on CD1 of The Bootleg Series Vol. 8 - Tell Tale Signs: Rare And Unreleased 1989-2006,
2008

Spanish Harlem Incident, live from New York
Philharmonic Hall, 31 Oct 1964, released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 6

R-0614 Hero Blues - live from New York
Town Hall, 12 Apr 1963, not the 1963 studio version which surfaced in 1980 as a
Columbia acetate, see 1980
This has now been released on the Columbia/Legacy/Sony Music Europe 6LP limited edition 50th Anniversary Collection 1963, Dec
2013.
As this is a limited release, R-0614 is still a rarity. Thanks to Justin Brooks
for information this occurrence has an intro missing from the 50th Anniversary Collection 1963
version, but I am leaving both
occurrences as R--0614.

May 2003: (Custom Mix CD site )

R-0606 was removed and replaced by:

R-0271Roving Gambler
(Traditional) - live, El Rey Theater, Los Angeles, 17 Dec 1997 (A), from the

Australian tour limited edition of Time Out Of Mind, both 1998

Dec 2003: (Custom Mix CD site )

The Sony Custom Mix CD facility has now been discontinued L. Newbury Comics in
the USA have copies of a twelve track all rarity Custom Mix CD for sale
for $14.95, see here
Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for information that this CD-R is offered by
Newbury Comics as a permanent item with the same fixed twelve tracks and
artwork.

Note that the timing of
George Jackson (5:53) is a mistake. It's 3:38
and is the acoustic version (R-0085) and not the "Big Band" version
(R-0084).

Thanks to David Plentus for scans.

New Morning, with Bob on piano (this was available from the US store only
on 12 Oct 2004)
Now no longer a rarity since it appears as track 15 on CD2 of 2013's The
Bootleg Series, Vol. 10 - Another Self Portrait (1969-1971).

Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux for information about this
item. Thanks to Evan Marshall for pointing out the 2013 release.

The UK "Uncut" magazine's Jan 2005 issue had as its feature article the story
of the recording of
Blood On The Tracks in Sep and Dec 1974 "One of the most truthful
dissections of love gone wrong in rock history.' Exactly 30 years after its
release in January 1975, we present the full story of Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks."
You can listen to
the five replaced tracks from Blood On The Tracks at "Uncut"'s
web-site here. Thanks to Fred Muller for
spotting this.

"Exclusive Out-takes
From 'The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home - The Soundtrack'"-
Three Track Download Only Single, Columbia (no catalogue number) (USA), 1 Nov
2005/(Europe),
14 Nov 2005:Thanks to
Terry Kelly and Ian Woodward for the news
that to coincide with Bob touring the UK three tracks were made available from 14
Nov 2005 for download from sites such as iTunes! The three tracks were recordings
considered for inclusion on the soundtrack to the Martin Scorsese picture "No
Direction Home", and one of them is available on the bonus disc with the DVD
release. These tracks are in MPEG4 (.m4p) format, which is a
copyrighted format that can be copied to an iPod and only be burned to CD-R using the iTunes software.

R-0725Baby, Please Don't Go (Big Joe
Williams) - out-take from The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan, recorded Columbia
Studios, New York, 25 Apr 1962
There were two complete takes of this song from the recording sessions
according to Michael Krogsgaard, one take of which is in circulation amongst
Dylan fans. Thanks to Bob Stacy for confirming this sounds like that take in
better quality.Both takes have now been released on the Sony Music Europe 4CD set The 50th Anniversary
Collection, Dec 2012.

R-0726 Mr. Tambourine Man - live, Newport Folk Festival, Newport,
RI, 26 Jul 1964 (evening performance)
Note this is not the audio of the bonus track from the Martin Scorsese documentary film "Bob Dylan: No Direction
Home", DVD release, Sep 2005, see VHS & DVD 2000s Part 3. That track is dated incorrectly as 26
Jul 1964 but is actually from the afternoon workshop on the 24th and not
from the evening performance on the 26th. Thanks to Bob Stacy for
identifying these performances.

R-0727 Outlaw Blues - alternate take from Bringing It All
Back Home, recorded Columbia Studios, New York, 13 Jan 1965 (wrongly listed as "16
Jan 1965")
This alternate take was then previously uncirculating. Thanks to Bob Stacy for
pointing out that the published date of 16 Jan 1965 cannot be right, as Michael
Krogsgaard's series of articles "Bob Dylan: The Recording Sessions" shows that
the album recording sessions took place on 13-15 Jan 1965. This take is probably
the final take from 13 Jan 1965. The date of 16 Jan 1965 may have been when
selected takes were extracted to a compilation reel for consideration for the
Bringing It All
Back Home album.
Thanks to Roger Ford for information that this take is now on both the 6CD and
18CD versions of The Bootleg Series Vol. 12 - Bob Dylan
1965-1966 The Cutting Edge released in Nov 2015 (6CD version - CD1, track
14; 18CD version - CD1, track 10), so is now no longer a rarity.

R-0709 The Times They Are
A-Changin' - recorded
live at Carnegie Hall, New York, 26 Oct 1963, from the limited edition
six-track CD Bob Dylan Live At Carnegie Hall
1963, Sony Music (USA/Japan),
2005

This track was
available from the iTunes store in the USA only.

Thanks to Jack Guerreiro for information.
Thanks to Paul S. Levine for information that this track was also available
in Dec 2005 from iTunes:

R-0544 Man Of Peace
- recorded with the Grateful Dead during rehearsals
at Club Front, San Rafael, CA, 9 Jun 1987, from the Grateful Dead Records/Arista album Postcards Of The Hanging: The Grateful Dead Play The
Music Of Bob Dylan, 2002

The tracks are: A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall (6:45);
Bob Dylan's Dream (3:39);
Boots Of Spanish Leather (4:40);
John Brown (4:40);
Blowin' In The Wind (2:39). Bob Stacy has identified these tracks as all
previously officially unreleased, recorded for Studs Terkel's Wax Museum,
Radio WFMT, Chicago, IL, 26 Apr 1963. The programme included
Farewell as the first song (see my Starlight In
The East "F" page), and then the songs as
listed, but with Who Killed Davey Moore? between John Brown and Blowin' In The
Wind. However, these songs were originally performed solo, here they have been
buried under a vile cacophony of electronic instrumentation - strongly not
recommended! This is a great shame, as the original solo acoustic versions
represent an important historical document - this is the first public
performance of Boots Of Spanish Leather.

These tracks
have been created by CARINCO AG, which is a Swiss company, very present
on the German market, and has released a lot of cheap CDs and especially musical
DVDs (anthologies of blues, country, folk, jazz, etc.). There is a contract
between CARINCO AG and DIGITAL MUSICWORKS INTERNATIONAL INC (DMI) and during
2005, especially November and December, CARINCO AG and DMI have released various
collections (all “TM”) of downloadable EPs or LPs on iTunes: “Blues Masters”,
“Rock Masters”, “Jazz Masters”, “Soul Masters”, “Folk Masters”, “Classical
Masters”, and “Classical Vocal Masters”. In the collection “Live Folk
Masters”, Bob Dylan is currently the only artist.

Thanks to Jean-Pol Hiernaux and Bob Stacy for
information. This EP was downloadable from the 17 European iTunes music stores,
but not the US, Canadian, Australian and Japanese stores. I have checked through a friend with
Bob Dylan's office,
and they say the tracks are from bootlegs, reworked and released without
permission. The Studs Terkel material has not been authorised for release by Bob
or Columbia, and I'm sure the 1966 material (see below) is illegal also. I am
only listing this
material for reference, and it was removed from iTunes on 8 Jan 2006. I hope that Bob's office and Columbia will be
spurred to release this show officially so it can be heard as intended!

A new
set of 13 tracks from Carinco AG appeared on 3 Jan 2006 as Visions Of Johanna, including
the tracks from the "Blowin' In The Wind" EP above plus
Farewell
(which is mistitled "My Own True love" as on
bootlegs) and Who Killed
Davey Moore, all from Studs Terkel. They are
without digital reworking this time but with
fake applause!
This album also includes the acoustic set from a 1966 concert with sound reported as poor.
Jean-Pol Hiernaux has identified the 1966
tracks as from the Adelphi Theatre, Dublin, Ireland, 5 May 1966. They're
almost certainly taken from one of the circulating bootleg CDs. Again fake
applause was added, totally unnecessarily.

Thanks to Jean-Pol
Hiernaux for information. This album was downloadable from the 17 European
iTunes music stores, but not the US, Canadian, Australian and Japanese
stores, and was removed on 13 Jan 2006. As above, I shall not be listing the
material except for reference.

15 Aug 2006: Thanks to "rbn" for informing me that both the "Blowin' In The
Wind" and "Visions Of Johanna" Live Folk Masters offerings are available for
download from the RealNetworks Rhapsody site. I assume that Bob's management
will eventually intervene to have them removed.

Thanks to Artur Jarosinski and Harold Lepidus for information about

This is a site primarily selling memorabilia, much from the archives of
legendary rock promoter Bill Graham (of the Fillmore East and West), whose
actual first name was Wolfgang. The site also has an online streaming feature which plays
live performances from Bill Graham's collection, including many with Bob. I have
not given these R-numbers because they are only featured for a short period and
are not downloadable.

And Theft", see 2001 and 2002)
Now also released on The Bootleg Series Vol. 7: No Direction Home, Sep
2005, but in a version with a spoken intro, so R-0514 remains a rarity.
R-0514 was also released on Step Right Up!, a compilation CD given away

- unidentified live performance, misdated as The Oval, City Hall, Sheffield,
England, 30 Apr 1965, from the 2000 DVD release of D.A. Pennebaker's 1965 film Don't
Look Back, see VHS & DVD 2000s
Part 1This performance is definitely not the one known by Dylan
collectors to be from Sheffield (from an audience tape containing six songs
which could only have been recorded at Sheffield). My guess is that it's from
City Hall, Newcastle, England, 6 May 1965, see
VHS & DVD 2000s Part 1.

recorded. Sadly, it does not appear on the B-side of a withdrawn CBS
Spanish EP (see 1972), because the record was
mispressed with It Takes A Lot To Laugh, It Takes A Train To Cry from
Highway 61 Revisited instead!
Fred Muller says the version
on the Columbia/Legacy USA/Europe 36CD set
The 1966 Live Recordings
is slightly clipped at the beginning when compared with the versions on Masterpieces and The Band: A Musical History.
This is confirmed by Peter Coulthard and Roger Ford, who say that the first two
bars of the performance on the 1966 mono single and subsequent releases of
R-0054 up to 2016 were spliced in (presumably by Columbia engineers, not tour
engineer Richard Alderson) from the
performance of Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues from the ABC Theatre, Belfast,
Northern Ireland, 6 May 1966! This means that track 8 on CD14 of The 1966 Live Recordings
is not strictly
the same as R-0054, but I shall retain this R-number for this occurrence for simplicity.

R-0064I Ain't Got No
Home - recorded live with The Band at the

iTunes UK - screenshot by Jean-Pol Hiernaux

There are a bewildering number of download variations on the
Dylan 3CD set and the extracted single CD on various iTunes sites
worldwide with different bonus tracks! As well as R-0826 there are three
new rarities for download:

R-0436 Blowin' In The Wind - live, Santa Cruz Civic Auditorium, Santa Cruz, CA, 16 Mar
2000, previously found on the limited edition bonus CD single given away
with The Best Of Bob Dylan Vol. 2 in the UK, 2000
This is listed as "Recorded in Australia, Aug 1998", but it's actually the
performance shown! Thanks to Richard Hillier for confirming this.

R-0681 Tryin' To Get To Heaven
- live audience
recording from
the UK in 2000 (now identified as Wembley Arena, London, England, 5 Oct
2000) (A), originally released on a
Columbia US promo CD single, 2004
This track was previously identified wrongly as from the Guildhall,
Portsmouth, England, 25 Sep 2000. It is now included on the third CD of the 3CD set of The Bootleg Series Vol. 8 - Tell Tale
Signs: Rare And Unreleased 1989-2006 (see 2008).
As this set is a Limited Edition of 5000 copies, R-0681 remains a rarity.

Confusingly, the Dylan album information given on all screens is
for the 1973 deleted album of the same name, see 1973.
Thanks to Éamonn Ó Catháin for news this has now been corrected.

There is a concert including Bob at the SNACK Benefit, San Francisco, CA,
23 Mar 1975 with Neil Young and members of The Band. Unfortunately there
was a fault with Bob's microphone and he is almost inaudible, so this is
for completists only! There are also four concerts from the Rolling
Thunder Revue from Oct-Dec 1975. Bob is credited with guitar/vocals on all
four but there are no songs sung by him online, only from other members of
the Revue.

such as Candy Man from the "Minnesota Hotel

Thanks to Jacques Colinet for information about
this release of Highway 61 Revisited (Deluxe Version) on
iTunes France with the released album and seven alternate takes (see
screenshot). Thanks to Bob Meyer for noticing that all the alternate tracks
are in fact officially released on albums of The Bootleg Series, but
as Bob does not want his classic albums to be released with bonus tracks, I
think this iTunes compilation is unofficial.

Thanks to Fred Muller for information that Bob
performed a private concert at Philadelphia's Academy of Music on 23 Nov
2014 for the Swedish TV programme "Experiment Ensam [Experiment Alone]", a
series in which people experience alone events that usually take place
for large crowds. The solo audience member was Fredrik Wikingsson, a Swedish
